Dingo

This is my remake of Dingo, my third game made for the Retro Remakes Competition 2008.
The original arcade game was made in 1983 by A.C.G. (also known as “Ultimate Play The Game“).

	Download for Windows XP and above.
	Download for Mac OSX (Intel).

MAC OSX note:
Please be aware, that the games I’ve ported to OSX doesn’t run on newer OS’s. I bought my MacBook Pro in 2011 and have never updated it, so I can assure you that the games still work. BUT Apple has removed “Legacy support” from their operating systems, and since the language I’ve used hasn’t been updated to support newer OSX versions, the games won’t run on on newer and updated machines.

Dingo is a labyrinth/maze game and you are ‘Big Ted‘ – a panda on a mission.

Your mission is to collect all the fruit on the screen to advance to the next level. Your enemy are the Dingoes – they will try to stomp on you which will cause you to lose one of your three lives. Sometimes the Dingoes will also collect fruit by stomping on it and throw it at Big Ted – which is also fatal.

Luckily Big Ted can defend himself by picking up fruit and use it to throw after the Dingoes. Very hand for survival as it stuns the Dingoes for a few seconds…but a piece of fruit gives you just one shot and you have to pick up another piece before you can shoot again.

However, fruit’s no good when it’s been thrown around, so every piece that you throw won’t add to your score, so it’s best to try and clear the screens as fast as possible and only throw as little as you have to.
